Anti-LGBT bullying contributes to suicide by Maryland teen

GLEN BURNIE, Md. — Kenneth (“Kenny”) Wolf, a 14-year-old freshman at Old Mill High School in Millersville, Md., died Friday at Baltimore Washington Medical Center following a suicide attempt Thursday night, LGBTQ Nation has learned.

Kenny identified as bisexual, according to classmates, and was constantly bullied because of his sexual orientation.
